Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. 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 primarily vital 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.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of 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. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
