Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
