Weather in December
Temperature
Coowonga's temperature records reveal December as the warmest month, marked by average highs of 31.1°C (88°F) and lows of 21.2°C (70.2°F).Heat index
For most parts of December, the heat index is calculated to be a sweltering 38°C (100.4°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. 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 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
