Weather in February
Temperature
The arrival of February brings an average high-temperature of a still warm 27.5°C (81.5°F), subtly diverging from January's 28.3°C (82.9°F). Throughout the month of February, Rufisque witnesses an average temperature of 20.4°C (68.7°F).Heat index
February's heat index is estimated at 28°C (82.4°F). If activity and exposure persist, they could induce fatigue, leading to possible heat cramps.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.

Sunshine

January through April and December, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: A typical high UV index of 6 in February suggests the following recommendations:
Avert overexposure. Light-skinned people might experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Limit direct sun exposure especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
