Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant 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.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.
