Temperature

February, known for its average high temperature of 33.2°C (91.8°F) and an average low temperature of 19.5°C (67.1°F), is the warmest month.

Heat index

The heat index in February is estimated at a blistering 40°C (104°F). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. Limit your direct sun exposure, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest. Shade structures might not provide complete sun protection. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
