The heat index in May is evaluated at a hot 32°C (89.6°F). Uninterrupted activity during exposure could lead to a sense of exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
