Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
