Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
