Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
