Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.
