Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel.

Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. 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. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
