Heat index

When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. 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 especially vital to children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
