Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Delight, is another hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 92.5°F (33.6°C) and min 70.7°F (21.5°C).

Temperature

August's onset sees an average high-temperature of a still tropical 92.5°F (33.6°C), exhibiting a slight fluctuation from the previous month. August's nights exhibit a sharp contrast from day highs, with an average temperature of 70.7°F (21.5°C).

Heat index

The heat index for August is evaluated at a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Keep alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke is a potential danger with continued physical activity.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
