Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to 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.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
