Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
