Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity.

Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
