Weather in August
Temperature
With the onset of August, Wright's average high-temperature clocks in at a still tropical 88.3°F (31.3°C), showing a minor fluctuation from the previous month. During August, Wright records an average temperature of 68.9°F (20.5°C) at night.Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a scorching 104°F (40°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. 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 highly important for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Take precautions and utilize sun safety practices. Protection against skin and eye damage is required. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Arm yourself against UV rays' harm with protective apparel and UV-filtering shades.
