Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Children often fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate.

Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
