Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
