Weather in December
Temperature
The advent of December brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.4°C (81.3°F), exhibiting minor difference from the previous month. La Palma, during December, witnesses an average low-temperature of 21.5°C (70.7°F).Heat index
December's mean heat index is calculated to be a hot 31°C (87.8°F). A sense of exhaustion might occur with extended exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. 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. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
