Heat index

August's mean heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 45°C (113°F). Precaution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are possible. Heatstroke is a serious risk with continued exertion.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
