Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
