Heat index

The average heat index in August is calculated to be a blazing hot 118.4°F (48°C). Be cautious: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a possible consequence of continuous physical effort.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
