Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
