Weather in December
Temperature
The shift from November to December includes a small decrease in the average high-temperature, from a hot 30.9°C (87.6°F) to a warm 27.2°C (81°F). An average low-temperature of 18.5°C (65.3°F) marks the nights throughout December.Heat index
During December, the heat index is estimated at a hot 30°C (86°F). Enduring exposure and unrelenting activity might cause a state of weariness, potentially leading to heat cramps.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
