Temperature

Bolpebra, Bolivia, marks the onset of December with an average high-temperature of a still hot 30°C (86°F), subtly divergent from November's 31.7°C (89.1°F). Throughout December, Bolpebra's nights cool down to an average of 21.9°C (71.4°F).

Heat index

December's average heat index is computed to be a torrid 39°C (102.2°F). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.

Humidity

In December, the average relative humidity is 84%.

Rainfall

In December, the rain falls for 28.4 days. Throughout December, 156mm (6.14") of precipitation is accumulated. In Bolpebra, during the entire year, the rain falls for 253 days and collects up to 1428mm (56.22") of precipitation.

UV index

The months with the lowest UV index are January through June, November and December, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.
Note: A typical high UV index of 6 in December suggests the following recommendations:
Avert overexposure. Light-skinned people might experience burning in less than 20 minutes. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
