Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat.

Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
