The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children.

Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
