Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
