Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.

Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. Your best bet for sun defense on the face, eyes, and neck is a hat with a wide brim.
