Weather in January
Temperature
January's onset records an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.9°C (82.2°F), identical to December. During the nights in January, an average low-temperature of 21.2°C (70.2°F) is observed in Aitape.Heat index
For most parts of January, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 34°C (93.2°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: In January, a regular UV index of 6 translates into these guidelines:
Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun. Attention! UV radiation is ramped up when reflecting off sand and water surfaces.
