Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
