Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
