For August, the heat index is estimated at a blistering 104°F (40°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
