Weather in December
Temperature
As November transitions into December, a subtle temperature shift is observed, with average highs adjusting from a hot 30.7°C (87.3°F) to a still tropical 34.1°C (93.4°F). Despite a significant disparity with daytime temperatures, an average low-temperature of 20.6°C (69.1°F) is recorded during December.Heat index
Throughout December, the heat index is appraised at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.

Avert overexposure. Light-skinned people might experience burning in less than 20 minutes. The Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
