The average heat index in December is evaluated at a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. 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.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
