Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 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.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.
