Heat index

The average heat index in June is evaluated at a blistering 42°C (107.6°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

For effective sun eye protection, rely on sunglasses certified for UVA and UVB resistance.
