Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical 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.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. 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. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
