Heat index

The heat index for February is calculated to be a blazing hot 47°C (116.6°F). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.
In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Equip yourself with UVA and UVB-filtering sunglasses on clear, sunny days.
