It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes.

Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays.
