Heat index

In May, the average heat index is computed to be a burning hot 48°C (118.4°F). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.
It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.

Act with urgency in protecting yourself. Without it, skin and eyes can be harmed in no time. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
