Temperature

Heat index

Throughout July, the heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 52°C (125.6°F). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Opt for tightly woven and loose clothing to enhance protection from the Sun.
