Heat index

Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
