Heat index

Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.

Never be careless. Unprotected skin and eyes can be harmed swiftly. Avoid direct Sun exposure and stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is most intense, noting that not all shade structures offer full protection. Opt for tightly woven and loose clothing to enhance protection from the Sun. Be vigilant! The Sun's UV rays get a boost from sand and water reflections.
