In Australia, we are used to this type of heat, but people still die from heat exhaustion.
Either start work extra early, then stop in the later part of the day when the heat has reached its peak, then go again later when it cools off if at all possible.
If you have to work out in the heat of the day.
Stay hydrated, and keep your electrolytes up, ie sports drinks bought or home mixed, have loose fitting long sleeved shirts and long pants, and a good hat, keeping the radiant heat off you is important, loose fitting helps with air flow and cooling.
As others have already mentioned, heat stroke is not to be taken lightly, and you can die from it.
Ive been hit with it when working in roof spaces, up trees, cutting wood on the ground etc, know the early signs and take them seriously.
it takes a good week to start getting used to the heat, so if you have just been hit with a heat wave, it will take a while to get used to the heat.
By the end of summer here, when the days are around 38c, you think its cool compared to the mid 40s.
