Heat index

Throughout October, the heat index is estimated at a sweltering 38°C (100.4°F). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

Take precautions and utilize sun safety practices. Protection against skin and eye damage is required. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. On sunny days, it's ideal to wear sunglasses that filter out UVA and UVB rays.
