Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
