Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
