February weather forecast
Organabo, French Guiana

Shifting into February, rainfall frequency falls slightly, with fewer wet days than in January. Consequently, the city experiences a marginal reduction in cloud coverage and a slight increase in visibility, but the wet weather remains dominant all through February. Despite a minor rise in both the lowest and highest temperature averages, the climate remains comfortably warm. Wind speeds in February reach up to 10.2km/h (6.3mph), just above January's average, providing some relief from the city's wet conditions. The constant warm temperatures coupled with persistent rainfall make February a quintessentially tropical month in Organabo.

Temperature

The month of February sees the lowest average temperatures, reaching 29.1°C (84.4°F) at the peak and 22.6°C (72.7°F) at the low.

Heat index

The heat index in February is evaluated at a fiery hot 36°C (96.8°F). Take additional safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Prolonged activity may cause heatstroke.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. 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 evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.

UV index

The months with the lowest UV index are January through June and December, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: In February, an average UV index of 6 transforms into the following instructions:
Steer clear of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can be scorched in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
