Heat index

The heat index for March is calculated to be a torrid 35°C (95°F). Adopt extra preventive measures, the occurrence of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is likely. Heatstroke may follow extended activity.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. For minimizing sun-related eye damage, always choose sunglasses with UVA and UVB coverage. Caution! The reflection of sand and water significantly amplifies the Sun's UV radiation.
