Heat index

Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in.

Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
