Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
