Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
