Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
