Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. 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.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
