Heat index

The average heat index in October is evaluated at a torrid 35°C (95°F). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
