Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
