Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth.

Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat.
