Weather in December
Temperature
The arrival of December brings an average high-temperature of a still hot 33.5°C (92.3°F), nearly identical to November's 32.4°C (90.3°F). An average temperature of 24.4°C (75.9°F) marks the nights in El Ben in December.Heat index
The heat index in December is calculated to be a sweltering 38°C (100.4°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
