Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels.

Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
