Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
