Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity.

When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
