Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
