Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children often fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst, being a late symptom of dehydration, underlines the importance of maintaining hydration, especially during ongoing physical activities.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
