Weather in January
Temperature
The arrival of January coincides with an average high-temperature of a still warm 28.5°C (83.3°F), indicating a minimal shift from December's 29.8°C (85.6°F). An average low-temperature of 22.5°C (72.5°F) is recorded during the nights in January.Heat index
Throughout January, the heat index is calculated to be 28°C (82.4°F). Constant exposure and activity lead to possible fatigue. Prolonged exercise may result in heat cramps.Heat index specifics point out values are for conditions of shade and a slight breeze. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. 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 highly 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.
