Heat index

The average heat index in August is calculated to be a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.

Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
