The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations.

Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
