Staying active during long-term exposure might result in a state of exhaustion and cause heat cramps.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids.
