Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Kids frequently ignore the importance of taking a break and rehydrating. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during long-lasting physical activities.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
