Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
