Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate.
