Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
