Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics.

Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
