Heat index

The heat index value for August is estimated at a scorching 107.6°F (42°C). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.
In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
