Heat index

The heat index in October is computed to be a life-threatening hot 47°C (116.6°F). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.
It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
