When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
