Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. 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. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
