Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
