Heat index

For most parts of October, the heat index is computed to be a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Take additional safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Prolonged activity may cause heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. 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. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.

Embrace precautions and observe sun safety norms. Evasion of sunburn is a necessity.

Opt for tightly woven and loose clothing to enhance protection from the Sun.
