Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
