Heat index
For most parts of October, the heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 45°C (113°F).
Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
