Heat index

The heat index in August is calculated to be 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.
Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
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. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.

Humidity

August and September, with an average relative humidity of 80%, are the most humid months.

To mitigate harm from sun exposure, pick sunglasses offering UVA and UVB defense.
