The dawn of February sees an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.7°C (87.3°F), subtly contrasting with January's 32.4°C (90.3°F). During February, the nighttime temperature presents a clear descent from the daily peaks, falling to an average of 18.3°C (64.9°F).Heat index
In February, the heat index is estimated at a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
