Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Beware of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals risk burning in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. In bright sunlight, prioritize sunglasses that grant protection from UVA and UVB radiation.
