Heat index

The average heat index in July is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 105.8°F (41°C). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
