Heat index

The heat index for November is evaluated at a torrid 39°C (102.2°F). Exercise enhanced safety steps, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.
In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. 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.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
