Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth.

Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index.

Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
