August, the last month of the summer in Tolu, is another hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 89.6°F (32°C) and min 68.5°F (20.3°C).

Tolu experiences a transition to a still tropical 89.6°F (32°C) in average high-temperatures with the arrival of August, not greatly differing from July's 91°F (32.8°C). An average low-temperature of 68.5°F (20.3°C) is noted during the nights in August.

Heat index

August's average heat index is appraised at a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.
In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
