Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
