Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.

Humidity

September and December, with an average relative humidity of 76%, are the most humid months.

Note: The daily high UV index of 7 in September translates into this advice:
Deflect overexposure. Sun protection is a necessity. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. For effective sun eye protection, rely on sunglasses certified for UVA and UVB resistance.
