Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
