Weather in December
The first month of the winter, December, is also a hot month in Komadu, Sierra Leone, with an average temperature fluctuating between 31.4°C (88.5°F) and 17.5°C (63.5°F).Temperature

For December, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
