Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
