Weather in December
Temperature
Businga commences December with an average high-temperature of a still hot 33.9°C (93°F), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. In Businga, following the steep rise of daytime temperatures, an average nighttime low of 21.2°C (70.2°F) is anticipated during December.Heat index
The heat index value during December is estimated at a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: The maximum daily UV index of 7 in December interprets into the following recommendations:
Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. The hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. have the most intense UV radiation. As much as possible, limit direct sun exposure during this period. Sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays play a pivotal role in reducing solar eye damage.
