Temperature

July and August are characterised by peak temperatures, with an average high of 89.8°F (32.1°C).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is computed to be a scorching 111.2°F (44°C). Mindful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are to be expected. Extended physical effort might result in heatstroke.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
