Weather in December
Temperature
The average high-temperature during December is a still tropical 32.1°C (89.8°F), almost matching the conditions of the preceding month. An average low-temperature of 21.8°C (71.2°F) marks the month of December in Hwali.Heat index
In December, the average heat index is computed to be a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Take more preventive steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is elevated. Long activity may culminate in heatstroke.When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.Note: The maximum daily UV index of 7 in December converts into the following recommendations:
Eschew overexposure. Those with light skin may suffer burns in fewer than 20 minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure to the Sun during this period. Stay sun-safe with clothing that is both closely woven and worn loosely.
