Heat index

During August, the heat index is estimated at a scorching 111.2°F (44°C). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
