Heat index

During August, the heat index is appraised at a torrid 39°C (102.2°F). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Enforce precautions and stick to sun safety measures. Preservation from skin and eye damage is essential. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. Always opt for UVA and UVB-resistant sunglasses on radiant days.
