January weather forecast
Ban Sing, Thailand

January, the same as December, in Ban Sing, Thailand, is another hot winter month, with an average temperature ranging between min 21.7°C (71.1°F) and max 32.5°C (90.5°F).

Temperature

With the arrival of January, Ban Sing's average high-temperature registers at a still tropical 32.5°C (90.5°F), indicating a subtle variation from the previous month. Ban Sing's average low-temperature during January nights is observed to be an agreeable 21.7°C (71.1°F).

Heat index

The heat index value for January is computed to be a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold great significance to children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Humidity

The months with the lowest humidity are January and February, with an average relative humidity of 56%.

Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. Be aware that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. and try to reduce direct sun exposure during this period as much as possible. Shield yourself from the harmful effects of UV radiation with sun-protective attire, a hat, and quality sunglasses.
