Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing.

Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
