Weather in December
Temperature
December's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 28°C (82.4°F), slightly deviating from November's 29.3°C (84.7°F). Kattankudy's nighttime temperatures in December display a slight drop from daytime highs, averaging to a still moderately hot 24.5°C (76.1°F).Heat index
The heat index value for December is calculated to be a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). Fatigue might occur with continuous exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.

Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. Limit your exposure to the sun's UV radiation, which is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., and note that parasols or canopies may not provide full sun protection. A wide-brim hat offers excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck. Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection significantly reduce eye damage from sun exposure.
