Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
