Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
