Weather in February
Temperature
February is L'Observatoire's coldest month, registering average high temperatures of 29.5°C (85.1°F) and lows of 21°C (69.8°F).Heat index
In February, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children often fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst, being a late symptom of dehydration, underlines the importance of maintaining hydration, especially during ongoing physical activities.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Sunshine
With an average of 4.5h of sunshine, February has the least sunshine of the year.UV index
In February, the average daily maximum UV index in L'Observatoire, French Guiana, is 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: The maximum daily UV index, 6 in February, converts into the following recommendations:
Eschew overexposure. Those with light skin may suffer burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly.
