In the heat waves of 1936, more than 4,768 Americans died from heat and high humidity. Because humidity affects the body's ability to cool itself, biometeorologists -- scientists who study the relationship between weather and life -- have looked for ways in which to combine the air temperature and humidity. First, let us look at how the body reacts to heat and the role humidity plays in cooling the body. Then we will look at the indices which the Canadian and American weather services use to alert the public to the potential dangers of high heat and humidity.
