Heat index

Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
