Heat index

For November, the heat index is estimated at a blistering 44°C (111.2°F). Note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke can follow with prolonged activity.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
