Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. 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 sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are especially crucial 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.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
