August, the last month of the summer in Slicklizzard, is also a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between min 70°F (21.1°C) and max 89.6°F (32°C).

Transitioning from July to August, Slicklizzard observes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 89.6°F (32°C), differing subtly from the previous month. The average temperature during August nights is registered at an agreeable 70°F (21.1°C).

Heat index

In August, the heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.
Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
