Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity.

Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
