Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
