Temperature

The advent of February brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.3°C (86.5°F), exhibiting minor difference from the previous month. During the month of February, Tien Myl anticipates a mean low-temperature of 19.8°C (67.6°F).

Heat index

For February, the heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 35°C (95°F). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. 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 especially vital 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.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Persist with safeguards and heed sun safety doctrines. Keeping sunburn at bay is of prime importance. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. In the presence of strong sunlight, it's crucial to wear sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays.
