Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
