Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. 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. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
