Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
