Heat index

Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
