Heat index

February's average heat index is calculated to be a sweltering 37°C (98.6°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in February is 81%.

Adhere to precautions and respect sun safety doctrines. Avoiding sunburn is vital. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. On days when the sun blazes, arm yourself with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB radiation. Watch out! Sand and water enhance the UV exposure you receive.
