The heat index value for August is estimated at a blistering 105.8°F (41°C). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
