Heat index

The average heat index in February is computed to be a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Ensure extra safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. Remember that UV radiation from the Sun is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to limit direct sun exposure during this time. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage.
