Weather in August
Temperature
August notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 89.2°F (31.8°C), subtly differing from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). An average low-temperature of 69.8°F (21°C) is common during the nights of August.Heat index
In August, the heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 107.6°F (42°C). Emphasize additional safety, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is high. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.

A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: The maximum daily UV index of 6 in August converts into the following recommendations:
Ward off overexposure. Defence against solar harm is crucial. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Shield yourself from the harmful effects of UV radiation with sun-protective attire, a hat, and quality sunglasses.
