Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.
