Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
