Weather in August
Temperature
August's onset brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.4°F (30.8°C), showing a minute difference from July's 88.3°F (31.3°C). Throughout August, Hawk records an average temperature of 68.2°F (20.1°C) at night.Heat index
During August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Take more preventive steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is elevated. Long activity may culminate in heatstroke.Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: In August, the maximum UV index of 6 suggests these recommendations:
Take precautions and adopt sun safety practices. Protection against sunburn is obliged. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection.
