Heat index

Throughout March, the heat index is appraised at a life-threatening hot 47°C (116.6°F). Stay alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a likely outcome of ongoing activity.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Protection is paramount; otherwise, swift harm can come to the skin and eyes. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage.
