Heat index

December's average heat index is evaluated at a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
