Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity.

Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
