Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 114.8°F (46°C). Beware: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are on the cards. Heatstroke could result from sustained physical activity.
The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
