Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
