Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
