Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. 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. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
