Weather in December
Temperature
The onset of December brings an average high-temperature of a still warm 27.1°C (80.8°F), nearly matching the November temperature. Endeavour, during the December nights, maintains an average temperature of 24.2°C (75.6°F), closely aligned with its daytime readings.Heat index
December's average heat index is appraised at a hot 30°C (86°F). Exhaustion is likely with prolonged exposure and activity. Sustaining activity may result in heat cramps.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.

The months with the highest UV index are April through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: The maximum daily UV index, 7 in December, converts into the following recommendations:
Steer clear of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can be scorched in less than 20 minutes. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
