Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
