Heat index

The heat index value during August is computed to be a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Exercise enhanced safety steps, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.
Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. 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 children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

Select sunglasses that boast both UVA and UVB protection to limit the adverse effects of the sun on the eyes.
