Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together.

Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body.
