Heat index

The heat index value during August is calculated to be a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. 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 especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
