The shift to December signals an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32°C (89.6°F), subtly varied from November's 33.1°C (91.6°F). Ohama experiences a consistent average temperature of 23.2°C (73.8°F) throughout the nights in December.

Heat index

December's heat index is computed to be a tropical 33°C (91.4°F). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
