August's heat index is estimated at a hot 32°C (89.6°F). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
