Heat index

Throughout September, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. 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', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
