Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
