Heat index

The average heat index in August is appraised at a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

January through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: The UV index of 7 during August leads to these advisories:
Escape overexposure. People with light skin may incur burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays.
