Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
