Weather in August
Temperature
Transitioning into August, Barton records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.3°F (31.3°C), almost identical to July's 89.4°F (31.9°C). Barton's temperature in August lowers to a consistent average of 70.9°F (21.6°C) during the nights.Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a scorching 104°F (40°C). Ensure extra safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. Clothes that are both tight-knit and comfortably loose are prime choices for sun protection.
