Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
