Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important 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.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
