Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
