Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
