Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered.

Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
