Weather in August
Temperature
July's transformation into August witnesses an average high-temperature of a still tropical 91.9°F (33.3°C), noting a minor change from the preceding month. In August, the average low-temperature is an agreeable 71.8°F (22.1°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a blazing hot 114.8°F (46°C). Remain alert: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Extended effort can lead to heatstroke.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
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 influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Sunshine

June through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.Note: The maximum daily UV index, 7 in August, converts into the following recommendations:
Escape overexposure. People with light skin may incur burns in fewer than 20 minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
