Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
