Weather in August
Temperature
August's presence marks an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90°F (32.2°C), subtly varied from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). August brings with it a nighttime average temperature of 70.5°F (21.4°C).Heat index
In August, the average heat index is computed to be a blistering 109.4°F (43°C). Keep wary: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a possible outcome of ongoing activity.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
