Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children often fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst, being a late symptom of dehydration, underlines the importance of maintaining hydration, especially during ongoing physical activities.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
