Heat index

For June, the heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 49°C (120.2°F). Observe: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is on the horizon with prolonged exertion.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.

Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
