Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
