Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. 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 quite important for babies and toddlers. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
