Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and 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 relevant to 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.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
