Heat index

July's mean heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 35°C (95°F). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. 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 'felt air temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. 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. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
