Weather in December
Temperature
The arrival of December sees an average high-temperature of a tropical 30.5°C (86.9°F), hardly diverging from November's 27.7°C (81.9°F). Gilgandra records a marked daily temperature contrast, with an average low-temperature of 18.2°C (64.8°F) during the nights of December.Heat index
December's average heat index is computed to be a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). Unrelenting activity during exposure could cause fatigue and potentially lead to heat cramps.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. 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 remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
