Heat index

The heat index value during August is computed to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Emphasize additional safety, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is high. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.
Heat index specifics point out values are for conditions of shade and a slight breeze. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
