Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
