Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
