Weather in August
Temperature
August experiences an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.7°F (32.6°C), barely different from July's 91.8°F (33.2°C). Awin reports an average low-temperature of 72.1°F (22.3°C) during the nights of August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are quite likely. Heatstroke becomes a risk with continued exertion.Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. 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.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
