Heat index

For August, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
