Be wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are highly anticipated. With continued activity, heatstroke is very likely.
Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance 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.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
