Heat index

The heat index value for November is estimated at a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. 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 highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
