Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. 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. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
