Heat index

The heat index for March is computed to be a fiery hot 35°C (95°F). Incorporate special precautions, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is substantial. Sustained activity could cause heatstroke.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
