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 hold particular importance for children.

Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
