Heat index

The heat index for August is evaluated at a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Heightened precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
