Heat index

The average heat index in October is evaluated at a torrid 35°C (95°F). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.

Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. Remember that UV radiation from the Sun is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to limit direct sun exposure during this time. Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays. Take note! The UV strength of the Sun elevates when reflected off water and sand.
