Heat index

Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
