Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
