Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. 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 highly critical to babies and toddlers.
