Weather in February
Temperature
The onset of February notes an average high-temperature of a still hot 33.1°C (91.6°F), subtly shifted from January's 33°C (91.4°F). Nighttime temperature experiences an average drop to a moderately hot 23.5°C (74.3°F) in February.Heat index
The heat index for February is appraised at a life-threatening hot 45°C (113°F). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Prolonged effort can result in heatstroke.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. 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.

Employ safeguards and advocate sun safety protocols. Shielding against skin and eye damage is crucial. Avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Keep in mind that shade structures may not provide complete protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
