Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
