Heat index

October's heat index is estimated at a hot 31°C (87.8°F). Ongoing activity coupled with exposure often results in weariness and could induce heat cramps.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
