Heat index

The average heat index in August is estimated at a life-threatening hot 118.4°F (48°C). Be prepared: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Continued activity may lead to heatstroke.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
