Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
