Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
