Weather in January
Temperature
January's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.9°C (85.8°F), slightly deviating from December's 27.8°C (82°F). Nightly readings in January display a noticeable downturn from daily highs, with the average low-temperature registering a refreshing 16.5°C (61.7°F).Heat index
The heat index for January is evaluated at a hot 32°C (89.6°F). Exhaustion is likely with prolonged exposure and activity. Sustaining activity may result in heat cramps.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest 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. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
