Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people.

Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration.

Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
