February weather forecast
Caballococha, Peru

February, the last month of the summer in Caballococha, is also a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 22.4°C (72.3°F) and 30.2°C (86.4°F).

Temperature

February begins with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.2°C (86.4°F), reflecting close similarity to the preceding month. February brings with it a nighttime average temperature of 22.4°C (72.3°F) in Caballococha, Peru.

Heat index

February's average heat index is evaluated at a scorching 41°C (105.8°F). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. 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 body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Humidity

The months with the highest humidity are January through April, with an average relative humidity of 90%.

UV index

January through June, November and December, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: In February, a daily maximum UV index of 6 leads to the following instructions:
Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. Stay out of direct sunlight between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide complete protection. Stay sun-safe with clothing that is both closely woven and worn loosely.
