Clothing Recommendations

  • ✓ Lightweight, loose clothing suited to the activity
  • ✓ Check whether required equipment traps heat
  • ✓ Plan shade and a cooler place to rest
  • ✓ Use the separate UV forecast to choose sun coverage

Reduce activity intensity. Plan drinking water and rest breaks; follow local guidance for the activity.

Uses the NWS preliminary check, Rothfusz regression and low-/high-humidity adjustments. No UV rating follows from this result. Values beyond 125°F are shown as an upper category, not a precise prediction.
