Weather in December

Paddanichchipuliyankulam's coldest month, December, generally records average temperatures ranging from a high of 29.5°C (85.1°F) to a low of 21.7°C (71.1°F).Heat index
In December, the average heat index is estimated at a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. 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.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
