Weather in December

December in Marindo brings a robust surge of rainfall, marking the onset of the monsoon season that the city experiences. With this shift, the cloud cover jumps, and relative humidity levels rise, contributing to the cool atmosphere that sets in. However, despite the rain and cloud cover, there is still a significant amount of available sunlight. Highlighting the weather variants, December has the year's second-highest rainfall at 138mm (5.43") and experiences the cooling effects of a temperature range between 21.4°C (70.5°F) to 31.5°C (88.7°F). While the monsoon rains might restrict some outdoor activities, the dramatic skies and cooler temperatures can bring a different charm to the city.

Temperature

The onset of December manifests an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.5°C (88.7°F), demonstrating a minor variation from the preceding month. Marindo encounters a steady low-temperature average of 21.4°C (70.5°F) throughout the month of December.

Heat index

December's mean heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 42°C (107.6°F). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
