Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. 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. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

Select sunglasses that boast both UVA and UVB protection to limit the adverse effects of the sun on the eyes.
