Temperature

The transition from November to December brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.7°C (81.9°F), barely different from November's 27.5°C (81.5°F). Acot maintains a consistent average nighttime low-temperature of 23.4°C (74.1°F) throughout December.

Heat index

December's heat index is computed to be a hot 32°C (89.6°F). Continuous activity in exposure could lead to a feeling of fatigue and heat cramps.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.

In December, the average relative humidity is 85%.

Note: The maximum UV index of 6 during December translates into these guidelines:
Sustain precautions and conform to sun safety norms. Preventing sunburn is necessary. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
