Weather in August
Temperature
Oakley marks the onset of August with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C), subtly divergent from July's 90.3°F (32.4°C). The average low-temperature, in August, is an agreeable 71.2°F (21.8°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is estimated at a scorching 109.4°F (43°C). Keep wary: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a possible outcome of ongoing activity.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

Take precautions and adopt sun safety practices. Protection against sunburn is obliged. Limit your exposure to the sun's UV radiation, which is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., and note that parasols or canopies may not provide full sun protection. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage.
