Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
