Heat index

In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
