Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
