Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
