Heat index

In July, the heat index is evaluated at 82.4°F (28°C). Enduring exposure and unrelenting activity might cause a state of weariness, potentially leading to heat cramps.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
