Weather in February

The last month of the summer, February, is another warm month in Hisiu, Papua New Guinea, with an average temperature fluctuating between 24.3°C (75.7°F) and 29.6°C (85.3°F).

Temperature

The commencement of February brings an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.6°C (85.3°F), marking an inconsequential divergence from January. An average nighttime temperature of 24.3°C (75.7°F) is witnessed throughout February.

Heat index

February's heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

The months with the lowest humidity are January and February, with an average relative humidity of 73%.

Note: The daily high UV index of 6 in February translates into this advice:
Take precautions and utilize sun safety practices. Protection against skin and eye damage is required. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the period of highest UV radiation. Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. Combat UV radiation's detrimental effects with sun-safe clothing and UV-blocking eyewear.
