Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Children commonly overlook the importance of rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst, being a delayed sign of dehydration, emphasizes the need to keep hydration up, especially during lengthy physical activities.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
