Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
