Heat index

The heat index value during August is computed to be an extremely hot 40°C (104°F). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
