Heat index

August's average heat index is computed to be a hot 93.2°F (34°C). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. 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 'feels like' or 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
