Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing.

Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
