Heat index

In August, the average heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Prolonged effort can result in heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. 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 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.
