Heat index

For February, the heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Persist with precautions and heed sun safety advice. Prevention of sunburn is compulsory. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Select sunglasses that boast both UVA and UVB protection to limit the adverse effects of the sun on the eyes.
