Heat index

The heat index value for August is estimated at a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.
Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
