By February, the island relishes a slight rise in average temperature, with less rainfall, providing a less humid, enjoyable environment. The daylight hours continue to increase, promising extended periods of sunshine. Mariner activities thrive during this period owing to slightly less turbulent sea conditions than January.

Temperature

A minimal variation is noted in Ebeye's average high-temperature at the onset of February, reaching a tropical 30.3°C (86.5°F) from January's 29.9°C (85.8°F). Throughout February nights, Ebeye experiences a consistent temperature average of 25.1°C (77.2°F).

Heat index

For February, the heat index is appraised at a sweltering 37°C (98.6°F). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
