Temperature

Heat index

August's mean heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 116.6°F (47°C). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.
Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
