Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
