Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital 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.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
