Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
