Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
