Heat index

September's heat index is appraised at a blazing hot 49°C (120.2°F). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.
It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.

Take precautions and adopt sun safety practices. Protection against sunburn is obliged. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. A hat with a generous brim can prevent nearly 50% of UV rays from reaching your eyes.
