Heat index

The heat index value for August is computed to be a sweltering 98.6°F. Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. 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. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
