Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in.

Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
