Heat index

In August, the average heat index is appraised at a tropical 30°C (86°F). Long-standing exposure coupled with ongoing activity could result in exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
