Weather in August
Temperature
August notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.9°F (32.7°C), subtly differing from July's 91°F (32.8°C). An average low-temperature of 72.9°F (22.7°C) is observed during the August nights.Heat index
August's average heat index is evaluated at a blazing hot 114.8°F (46°C). Heed: Expect heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continued action may cause heatstroke.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. 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 largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.

The month with the most rainfall is August, when the rain falls for 22.8 days and typically aggregates up to 4.92" (125mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

Sunshine

In Perdido, the average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: The daily high UV index of 6 in August translates into this advice:
Escape overexposure. People with light skin may incur burns in fewer than 20 minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure to the Sun during this period. In the presence of strong sunlight, it's crucial to wear sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays.
