February weather forecast
El Caimito, Venezuela

February, the last month of the winter in El Caimito, is a tropical month, with an average temperature ranging between max 30°C (86°F) and min 18.4°C (65.1°F).

Temperature

The arrival of February marks a slight shift to an average high-temperature of a hot 30°C (86°F) from January's 29.3°C (84.7°F). El Caimito's average low-temperature in February is measured at an enjoyable 18.4°C (65.1°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during February is computed to be a very hot 35°C (95°F). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.
The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important 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.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

Humidity

The months with the lowest humidity are February and March, with an average relative humidity of 70%.

Rainfall

The month with the least rainfall is February, when the rain falls for 5.4 days and typically collects 7mm (0.28") of precipitation.

January through 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 threat to health from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.
Note: The daily high UV index of 6 during February translates into the following recommendations:
Shun overexposure. Protection from sun ravages is indispensable. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. For minimizing sun-related eye damage, always choose sunglasses with UVA and UVB coverage.
