Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
