Weather in December
Temperature
February and December are the warmest months, with an average high-temperature of 29.8°C (85.6°F).Heat index
The heat index in December is evaluated at a torrid 37°C (98.6°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Avoid overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can burn in under 20 minutes. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
