Heat index

November's mean heat index is calculated to be a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Undertake special precautions, the probability of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Prolonged activity may provoke heatstroke.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. 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 highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Implement precautions and maintain sun safety methods. Avoidance of sunburn is demanded. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
