Heat index

In December, the heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 45°C (113°F). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical 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 especially vital to children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
