Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.
