Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
