Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
