Heat index

December's mean heat index is evaluated at a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.
Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance 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.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in December is 76%.
