Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. 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. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
