Heat index

Heat index specifics point out values are for conditions of shade and a slight breeze. 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', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of 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 are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Limit exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. Clothes that are both tight-knit and comfortably loose are prime choices for sun protection.
