High humidity and relative temperature consistency contribute to an environment ample for cultivation. This is also a popular season amongst bird watchers and nature enthusiasts.

Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels.
