Weather in December
Temperature
December's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a still hot 32.4°C (90.3°F), slightly deviating from November's 32.5°C (90.5°F). In the month of December, the nighttime temperature dips to a steady average of 21.9°C (71.4°F).Heat index
Throughout December, the heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 45°C (113°F). Take note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke can occur with prolonged effort.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
