Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to 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.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
