Heat index

The average heat index in July is estimated at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
