Weather in August
Temperature
Shifting into August, Alexis records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.6°F (30.9°C), presenting minor fluctuations compared to the previous month. Alexis usually reports an average low-temperature of 68°F (20°C) during the month of August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is appraised at a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. 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 are highly important for children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
