Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
