Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August sees the average high-temperature at a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C), subtly shifted from July's 91°F (32.8°C). Gibbs reports a consistent average low-temperature of 69.3°F (20.7°C) throughout August nights.Heat index
August's average heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 107.6°F (42°C). Take additional safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Prolonged activity may cause heatstroke.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Sunshine
In August, the average sunshine in Gibbs is 10.1h.UV index
In Gibbs, the average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: The maximum UV index of 6 during August translates into these guidelines:
Shield from overexposure. Defense against sun-related harm is required. Avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Keep in mind that shade structures may not provide complete protection. A hat with a generous brim can prevent nearly 50% of UV rays from reaching your eyes.
