Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
