Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to 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, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
