One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.

Remember to safeguard yourself. Rapid damage can occur to skin and eyes without protection.

Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
