Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.

Don't neglect protection; skin and eyes can be burned swiftly if left exposed. The Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. For optimum UV protection, wear sun-resistant attire complemented with a hat and quality shades. Directly after outdoor activities or swimming, a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30+ should be applied generously and reapplied frequently.
