Weather in February
Temperature
Banjul commences February with an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.2°C (84.6°F), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. Nightly temperatures drop to an average low of 21.6°C (70.9°F) in February.Heat index
For most parts of February, the heat index is evaluated at 29°C (84.2°F). If one endures exposure and continues to be active, it might result in tiredness and heat cramps.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
