Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical 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.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
