Weather in December
Temperature
The arrival of December sees an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.7°C (89.1°F), hardly diverging from November's 30.8°C (87.4°F). During December, the average low-temperature is an agreeable 21.7°C (71.1°F).Heat index
The heat index value during December is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

In December, the average relative humidity is 70%.Rainfall
In December, the rain falls for 5.6 days. Throughout December, 8mm (0.31") of precipitation is accumulated. In Larreynaga, during the entire year, the rain falls for 186.8 days and collects up to 1067mm (42.01") of precipitation.Daylight

Sunshine
The average sunshine in December is 8.3h.UV index
The months with the lowest UV index are January, February, 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 unsafe exposure to UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: In December, the maximum UV index of 7 translates into these guidelines:
Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but keep in mind that not all shade structures provide complete protection. Shield yourself from the harmful effects of UV radiation with sun-protective attire, a hat, and quality sunglasses.
