Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a burning hot 45°C (113°F). Be on the lookout: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Continued exertion can result in heatstroke.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. 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. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Combat UV radiation's detrimental effects with sun-safe clothing and UV-blocking eyewear.
