Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
