Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
