Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
