Weather in January
Temperature
Namugongo, Uganda, signifies an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.5°C (81.5°F) in January, closely mirroring the 25.9°C (78.6°F) of December. Namugongo, during January, witnesses an average low-temperature of 16.8°C (62.2°F).Heat index
In January, the average heat index is appraised at a tropical 30°C (86°F). Persistent activity under exposure might lead to a feeling of weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
