Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Notice: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued strenuous activity might lead to heatstroke.
Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. 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.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
