Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
