Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
