Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
