Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
