Temperature

Heat index

In July, the average heat index is evaluated at a blazing hot 114.8°F (46°C). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
