Weather in December
Temperature
In December, Cascade experiences a barely noticeable shift in meteorological conditions, with average high-temperatures moving from 28°C (82.4°F) in November to a still moderately hot 27.5°C (81.5°F). A mean low-temperature of 24.9°C (76.8°F) is a distinguishing feature of December, indicating a slight dip from daytime highs.Heat index
The heat index value for December is estimated at a hot 31°C (87.8°F). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.

Sunshine
The months with the least sunshine are November and December, with an average of 6.6h of sunshine.UV index
January, March through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: A typical high UV index of 7 in December suggests the following recommendations:
Steer clear of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can be scorched in less than 20 minutes. Remember that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. A hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays.
