Heat index

August's mean heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 49°C (120.2°F). Be on the lookout: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Continued exertion can result in heatstroke.
Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
