Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
