Temperature

Heat index

August's heat index is estimated at a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Heed: Expect heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continued action may cause heatstroke.
It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
