Weather in December
Temperature
December, marked by an average high-temperature of 30.1°C (86.2°F) and a low-temperature of 25.5°C (77.9°F), is the warmest month.Heat index
In December, the average heat index is estimated at a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Take additional safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Prolonged activity may cause heatstroke.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. 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 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
