Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature.

When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers.
