Heat index

For April, the heat index is appraised at a torrid 39°C (102.2°F). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.
For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. 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.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
