Weather in January
Temperature
The arrival of January sees a recorded average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 28.5°C (83.3°F), showing little divergence from the previous month's conditions. Volavolo in January observes a slight diminution in temperature from daily highs, recording a low-temperature average of 25.8°C (78.4°F).Heat index
The heat index in January is calculated to be a tropical 33°C (91.4°F). Use additional protective measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible outcomes. Continuous activity might lead to heatstroke.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
