Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature.

Children commonly overlook the importance of rest and fluid replenishment.

Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth.
