Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children commonly overlook the importance of rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst, being a delayed sign of dehydration, emphasizes the need to keep hydration up, especially during lengthy physical activities.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.

Take precautions against overexposure. Protection against sun damage is needed. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays play a pivotal role in reducing solar eye damage.
