Weather in August
Temperature
A minor adjustment in Byrd's average high-temperature is noted with the start of August, touching a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C) from July's 90.7°F (32.6°C). In August, Byrd encounters an average low-temperature of 69.6°F (20.9°C) during the night.Heat index
The heat index value during August is computed to be a blisteringly hot 109.4°F (43°C). Be cautious: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a possible consequence of continuous physical effort.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. 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. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Sunshine
In August, the average sunshine is 10.2h.UV index
The average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.Note: A maximum UV index of 6 in August translates into the following recommendations:
Inhibit overexposure. Warding off sun damage is of utmost importance. Stay out of direct sunlight and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest, but remember that shade devices may not offer full sun protection. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
