Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
