When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
