Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.
