Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
