Heat index

The heat index for May is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 47°C (116.6°F). Observe: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is on the horizon with prolonged exertion.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. 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.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
