Heat index

The heat index for August is appraised at a life-threatening hot 114.8°F (46°C). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.
Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
