Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
