Heat index

Throughout January, the heat index is appraised at a sweltering 36°C (96.8°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
