Heat index

The heat index value during May is computed to be 29°C (84.2°F). If one remains active during constant exposure, it might cause exhaustion and heat cramps.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. 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 important for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
