Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. 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 largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
