Heat index

During August, the heat index is calculated to be an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). Forewarned: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Ongoing physical activity increases the likelihood of heatstroke.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
