Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
