Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
