Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
