Heat index

For most parts of September, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 35°C (95°F). Implement enhanced safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Sustained activity might result in heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.

Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
