Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
