In August, the average heat index is computed to be a hot 86°F (30°C). If activity and exposure persist, they could induce fatigue, leading to possible heat cramps.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children.
