Weather in February
Temperature
February brings an average high-temperature of a tropical 30.7°C (87.3°F), nearly identical to the preceding month. Bakmeegolla experiences an average low-temperature of 18.9°C (66°F) in the month of February.Heat index
The heat index value during February is estimated at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
