Heat index

The heat index in May is computed to be an extremely hot 43°C (109.4°F). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.

Elude overexposure. Fair-skinned people could get burnt in less than 20 minutes. Stay out of direct sunlight and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest, but remember that shade devices may not offer full sun protection. Sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays play a pivotal role in reducing solar eye damage.
