Weather in December
Temperature
December experiences an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.8°C (85.6°F), barely different from November's 28.7°C (83.7°F). Ambalasatrana observes an average nighttime low-temperature of 24.6°C (76.3°F) during the month of December.Heat index
Throughout December, the heat index is appraised at a sweltering 36°C (96.8°F). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
