Heat index

February's heat index is calculated to be a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Persist with precautions and heed sun safety advice. Prevention of sunburn is compulsory. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
