Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
