Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
