Heat index

During May, the heat index is appraised at a blisteringly hot 41°C (105.8°F). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

Note: In May, a regular UV index of 7 translates into these guidelines:
Fend off overexposure. Sun protection is vital. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. In bright sunlight, prioritize sunglasses that grant protection from UVA and UVB radiation. Notice! Sand and water reflections contribute to a stronger UV exposure.
