SUMMARY: The heat index, or “real feel” temperature, combines the air temperature with humidity to show how hot it truly feels. In the CSRA, high humidity makes it harder for sweat to evaporate, causing the body to feel hotter than the actual temperature. This can lead to heat-related illnesses like cramps, exhaustion, and even heat stroke. To stay safe in the intense heat, it’s important to hydrate, seek shade or air conditioning, wear light clothing, take breaks, and monitor symptoms of heat stress. Looking out for vulnerable individuals, such as the elderly or pets, is also crucial.

SUMMARY: A heatwave is expected in Savannah, bringing concerns about heat-related illnesses. Dr. Jay Goldstein of Memorial Health warns that heat exhaustion is common, but heat stroke is far more dangerous and potentially fatal if untreated. Early heatwaves pose greater risk as people are not acclimated and overexert themselves unknowingly. To stay safe, he advises avoiding alcohol and caffeine, which dehydrate the body, and recommends balanced electrolyte intake by mixing Gatorade with water. Additionally, protecting skin with sunscreen of SPF 15 or higher is crucial to prevent sunburn, heat illness, and long-term damage like cancer during outdoor activities.
