Heat index

The heat index for April is evaluated at a scorching 40°C (104°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are quite important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
