Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
