Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
