In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
