Heat index

The heat index for December is appraised at a torrid 35°C (95°F). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Humidity

In December, the average relative humidity is 41%.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are January through April, November and December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: In December, the maximum UV index of 7 transforms into these recommendations:
Evade overexposure. Individuals with fair skin risk burning in under 20 minutes. Be aware that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. and try to reduce direct sun exposure during this period as much as possible. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
