Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children commonly overlook the importance of rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst, being a delayed sign of dehydration, emphasizes the need to keep hydration up, especially during lengthy physical activities.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
