Heat index

The average heat index in July is appraised at a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Beware of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals risk burning in less than 20 minutes.

In bright sunlight, prioritize sunglasses that grant protection from UVA and UVB radiation.
