Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
