Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of 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 hold particular significance for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
