Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. 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 quite important for babies and toddlers. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
