Transitioning into February, temperatures in Treas, Cambodia increase slightly. The weather keeps much of the same patterns from January, but distinct changes soon become evident. A surge in UV index compared to the previous month brings brighter days. The city receives additional hours of daylight, while the rainfall remains somewhat steady.

Temperature

With the start of February, Treas measures an average high-temperature of a still tropical 34.8°C (94.6°F), not significantly differing from January's 31.9°C (89.4°F). Nighttime temperature dips to a mean of 23°C (73.4°F) during February.

Heat index

For most parts of February, the heat index is evaluated at a blistering 42°C (107.6°F). Take more preventive steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is elevated. Long activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

Conform to measures and uphold sun safety traditions. Warding off skin and eye harm is necessary. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. In bright sunlight, prioritize sunglasses that grant protection from UVA and UVB radiation.
