January in Chatuchak, Thailand, brings average daily highs of 31°C and overnight lows of 23°C in the 2016–2025 historical record. Allow room to shorten long outdoor plans when the day's forecast is hotter than you want. A schedule with easy breaks and less travelling between stops will give you more choices.
In the record, at least 1 mm of rain or snow falls on 3 of 31 days on average, a daily chance of 11%. Rain has been relatively infrequent in this record, which leaves more scope for an outdoor plan. Still keep an alternative for a wet day: a low monthly average cannot tell you when the rain will arrive.
The calculated day length, sunrise to sunset, averages about 11 hours. Sunshine averages 10 hours a day. Use the daylight window to plan the length of excursions, and check local sunrise and sunset times for the dates of your stay. Sunshine is a separate measure, and those hours need not arrive in one uninterrupted stretch.
If food is a reason for the trip, leave time around meals rather than filling every gap with another journey. Check the places you choose for current opening hours. For time in town, cluster a few stops together and leave the rest of the day open. Check transport and opening hours for any plans that run late.
