Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to 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.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
