Weather in December
Temperature
Entering December, the average high-temperature is recorded at a still tropical 32.5°C (90.5°F), exhibiting a minimal shift from November's 31.5°C (88.7°F). Nightly temperatures in Gbawe drop to an average low of 24.1°C (75.4°F) in December.Heat index
In December, the heat index is appraised at an extremely hot 43°C (109.4°F). Keep alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke is a potential danger with continued physical activity.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for 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.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure to the Sun during this period. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
