Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
