Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. 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.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
