Heat index

August's heat index is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Be prepared: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Continued activity may lead to heatstroke.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
