Heat index

The heat index value for August is computed to be a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
