Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
