Heat index

It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
