Heat index

Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
