Weather in August
Temperature
August observes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.8°F (31°C), marking an insignificant difference from July's 89.4°F (31.9°C). Cord experiences an average low-temperature of 69.4°F (20.8°C) in the month of August.Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
