Heat index

The heat index for June is calculated to be a sweltering 37°C (98.6°F). Adopt extra safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. 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. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Deter overexposure. Protecting against the sun's effects is essential. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays play a pivotal role in reducing solar eye damage.
