Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. 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. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
