Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
