Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
