Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Kids frequently ignore the importance of taking a break and rehydrating. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during long-lasting physical activities.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
