Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
