Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
