In
Mariscal Estigarribia,
February's climate transitions somewhat from
January, with a less frequent rainfall and an ever-so-slight dip in maximum temperatures down to 34.6°C (94.3°F). This minor shift in maximum temperatures from the previous months is not indiscernible though maintained warmth is still quite prevalent. Interestingly, February showcases the second lowest number of rainfall days throughout the year. Moving on to
March, a distinct decrease in temperature and an increase in rainfall is anticipated.
Temperature
February in Mariscal Estigarribia brings an average high-temperature of a hot 34.6°C (94.3°F), nearly identical to the preceding month. Mariscal Estigarribia's average low-temperature of 22.1°C (71.8°F) in February reflects a considerable decline from the daytime peak.
Heat index
The heat index value during February is computed to be a burning hot 46°C (114.8°F).
Mindful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are to be expected. Extended physical effort might result in heatstroke.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. 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 hold particular significance for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
