The heat index value for August is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). If activity and exposure persist, they could induce fatigue, leading to possible heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. 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 particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
