Heat index

For January, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure to the Sun during this period. Counter UV radiation's ill effects with clothing designed for sun safety and UV-resistant eyewear. Attention! The combination of sand and water reflections enhances UV ray intensity.
