Weather in August
Temperature
Prim marks the onset of August with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 89.4°F (31.9°C), a subtle shift from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). August nights are characterized by a notable drop from daytime highs, with an average low-temperature of 67.8°F (19.9°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a scorching 107.6°F (42°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Limit direct sun exposure especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Opt for tightly woven and loose clothing to enhance protection from the Sun.
