Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
