Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
