It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
