Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
