Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. 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 hold particular importance for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.
