Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance 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.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
