Heat index

For August, the heat index is evaluated at a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Remain cautious: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are foreseeable. Ongoing activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. 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. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
