Weather in February
Temperature
The dawn of February sees an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.3°C (81.1°F), subtly contrasting with January's 26.8°C (80.2°F). February nights cool to an average low-temperature of 25.8°C (78.4°F), a marginal decrease from its daytime equivalent.Heat index
For most parts of February, the heat index is estimated at a hot 30°C (86°F). Prolonged exposure and physical activity might induce exhaustion, potentially causing heat cramps.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
