Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
