Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
