Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August denotes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.4°F (30.2°C), subtly different from July's 87.4°F (30.8°C). In the month of August, the nighttime temperature in Hammondville dips to a steady average of 66.2°F (19°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is computed to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. 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 found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for 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.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

Deflect overexposure. Sun protection is a necessity. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
