February, the last month of the summer in Sauyemwa, is another tropical month, with an average temperature ranging between max 30.3°C (86.5°F) and min 19.8°C (67.6°F).

Temperature

Entering February, the average high-temperature is recorded at a still tropical 30.3°C (86.5°F), exhibiting a minimal shift from January's 30.5°C (86.9°F). February sees the temperature falling to a mean low of 19.8°C (67.6°F).

Heat index

The heat index for February is evaluated at a very hot 35°C (95°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

Humidity

With an average relative humidity of 65%, February is the most humid month.

Take precautions and utilize sun safety practices. Protection against skin and eye damage is required. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Prioritize a wide-brim hat for comprehensive sun defense for your face, neck, eyes, and ears.
