Heat index

During March, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 35°C (95°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.

Stand by precautions and apply sun safety measures. Evading sunburn is of great importance. Be aware that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. and try to reduce direct sun exposure during this period as much as possible. To best shield against UV radiation, choose sun-safe garments and dependable sunglasses. Stay alert! Reflective properties of sand and water amplify the Sun's UV radiation.
