Heat index

Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level 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 meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
