Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
