Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children.
