Weather in December
Temperature
The average high-temperature is a very hot 35°C (95°F) in December, hardly different from the 33.5°C (92.3°F) recorded in November. Despite soaring daytime temperatures, Idoani registers a consistent average low-temperature of 20.5°C (68.9°F) in December.Heat index
December's heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

The months with the highest UV index are January through April, October through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: An average maximum UV index of 7 in December leads to these recommendations:
Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. Limit your direct sun exposure, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest. Shade structures might not provide complete sun protection. Always opt for UVA and UVB-resistant sunglasses on radiant days.
