Uninterrupted exposure and activity might result in fatigue, potentially causing heat cramps.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate.
