Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, 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 hold particular importance for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
