In May, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 46°C (114.8°F). Keep alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke is a potential danger with continued physical activity.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
