Weather in December

The average heat index in December is evaluated at a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
