Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
