Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
