Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
