Weather in December
Temperature
December, marked by an average high-temperature of 30.4°C (86.7°F) and a low-temperature of 26.3°C (79.3°F), is the warmest month.Heat index
The average heat index in December is appraised at a sweltering 38°C (100.4°F). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. 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.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
