Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
