It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
