Temperature

The onset of February notes an average high-temperature of a sweltering 35.3°C (95.5°F), subtly shifted from January's 33.2°C (91.8°F). Hpa-An reports a sharp reduction in temperature during February, averaging at a refreshing 19.5°C (67.1°F) at night.

Heat index

In February, the heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 43°C (109.4°F). Eyes open: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Prolonged exertion could lead to heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage.
