Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
