Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
