Heat index

It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. 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.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
