A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
