Heat index

In March, the heat index is evaluated at a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

For a sun-safe wardrobe, go for clothes that are tightly woven and generously sized.
