Weather in January
Temperature
January, characterized by an average high temperature of 28.8°C (83.8°F) and a low temperature of 16.8°C (62.2°F), is generally the warmest month.Heat index
The heat index in January is calculated to be a hot 30°C (86°F). Long-lasting exposure and activity potentially induce a sense of weariness, with the risk of heat cramps.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
