Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 95°F (35°C). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
