Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent 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 weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. 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 extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
