For August, the heat index is computed to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Prolonged exposure combined with continuous activity could lead to exhaustion, and possibly heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. 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.
