Weather in February
Temperature
Entering February, Kinsuka's average high-temperature reads a still hot 31.3°C (88.3°F), indicating a close resemblance to the previous month's climate. In the month of February, the average low-temperature usually rests at a pleasant 22.1°C (71.8°F).Heat index
For most parts of February, the heat index is evaluated at a scorching 42°C (107.6°F). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. 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 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.

Take precautions and adopt sun safety practices. Protection against sunburn is obliged. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
