Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
