February in Mbaïki registers a slight increase in humidity and rainfall, marking the onset of the city's short wet season. The average high-temperature decreases a tad from January's sweltering heat down to 37.6°C (99.7°F). As the month progresses, the relative humidity and rainfall begin to increase, preparing the city for the upcoming wet months. Despite the uptick in humidity, the sunlight stays abundant, creating a balance between heat, humidity and light. Winds offer relief, moving at a gentle yet noticeable pace throughout the city.

Temperature

In Mbaïki, February records the highest average temperatures, peaking at 37.6°C (99.7°F) and reaching a low of 23.2°C (73.8°F).

Heat index

During February, the heat index is computed to be a burning hot 45°C (113°F). Be wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are highly anticipated. With continued activity, heatstroke is very likely.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. 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 hold particular importance for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
