Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
