Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
