Heat index

August's heat index is computed to be a blistering 41°C (105.8°F). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.
Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. 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 quite important for babies and toddlers. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. The hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. have the most intense UV radiation. As much as possible, limit direct sun exposure during this period. A wide-brimmed hat is a staple for defending the face, eyes, ears, and neck from the Sun.
