Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
