Temperature
With the onset of December, the average high-temperature subtly transitions from a warm 24.8°C (76.6°F) in November to a still moderately hot 27.8°C (82°F). Gulgong undergoes a major shift from daytime highs, averaging a refreshing 14.7°C (58.5°F) during the night in December.Heat index
During December, the heat index is calculated to be 29°C (84.2°F). If one sustains activity during exposure, it could lead to a sense of fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
