Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical 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 of high significance for children. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
