Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
