Heat index

Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
