Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly important for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
