Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Equip yourself with UVA and UVB-filtering sunglasses on clear, sunny days.
