Heat index

In July, the heat index is computed to be a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.
Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
