Heat index

During July, the heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 102.2°F (39°C). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. 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 especially vital to children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
