Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
