Heat index

For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 48°C (118.4°F). Stay on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Ongoing effort can cause heatstroke.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
