The heat index in August is appraised at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children commonly overlook the importance of rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst, being a delayed sign of dehydration, emphasizes the need to keep hydration up, especially during lengthy physical activities.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
