Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of 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 hold particular importance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
