Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
