Heat index

August's mean heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Remain cautious: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are foreseeable. Ongoing activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
