Weather in December
Temperature
Mahagi's shift into December sets the average high-temperature at a still hot 33°C (91.4°F), a figure that deviates only slightly from November's 30.9°C (87.6°F). Mahagi, after hot December days, encounters a marked drop to an average nighttime temperature of 20.7°C (69.3°F).Heat index
December's heat index is calculated to be a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

January through March and December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: The maximum UV index of 7 during December leads to these instructions:
Implement precautions and maintain sun safety methods. Avoidance of sunburn is demanded. Remember that UV radiation from the Sun is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to limit direct sun exposure during this time. In the presence of strong sunlight, it's crucial to wear sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays.
