Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. 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 largely significant for babies and toddlers. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
