Where these numbers come from
WeatherAPI supplies the forecast. HeatGuard calculates heat-index risk and models WBGT from forecast temperature, humidity and a daytime solar allowance. Modeled WBGT is not an on-site globe-thermometer reading.
Local planning context
Planning for heat in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Kuala Lumpur's year-round humidity and frequent high temperatures can sustain heat strain during outdoor work and training. Malaysia's workplace guidance uses WBGT measurements, so compare this forecast trend with conditions measured at the activity site.
Forecasts describe outdoor conditions, not an individual's medical risk. Workload, duration, shade, clothing, acclimatization and health can change the appropriate decision.
