In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
