Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to 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 innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
