Heat index

Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
