Heat index

The average heat index in May is evaluated at a burning hot 51°C (123.8°F). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
