Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. 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. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
