Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
