Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. 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.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
