Heat index

In August, the average heat index is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). If one endures exposure and continues to be active, it might result in tiredness and heat cramps.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
