The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
