Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
