You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
