For most parts of August, the heat index is appraised at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). With ongoing exposure and activity, one might experience weariness, and heat cramps could ensue.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children.

Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
