Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during long-lasting physical activities.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
