Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
