Heat index

In July, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.
