Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers.
