Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children often fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst, being a late symptom of dehydration, underlines the importance of maintaining hydration, especially during ongoing physical activities.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
