Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
