Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
