Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values hold particular significance for children.
