Heat index

August's heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.
It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
