Weather in December
Temperature
The start of December brings a subtle rise in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 25.5°C (77.9°F) in November to a still moderately hot 28.5°C (83.3°F). December nights indicate a noticeable temperature drop from the daytime highs, with an average reading lowering to a moderate 15.2°C (59.4°F).Heat index
In December, the heat index is evaluated at 29°C (84.2°F). Staying active during long-term exposure might result in a state of exhaustion and cause heat cramps.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
