Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
