Weather in December
Temperature
During December, Aberdeen observes a subtle ascent to a still moderately hot 28.2°C (82.8°F) from November's 25.6°C (78.1°F) in the average high-temperature. With a notable difference from peak temperatures, an average of 15.3°C (59.5°F) marks the nights in Aberdeen in December.Heat index
December's heat index is evaluated at 29°C (84.2°F). Constant activity during exposure could result in a state of weariness and possibly heat cramps.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
