Weather in August
Temperature
August's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.2°F (30.1°C), slightly deviating from July's 87.4°F (30.8°C). August nights bring a significant cooling from the heat of the day, with averages of 59.5°F (15.3°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). Enduring exposure and unrelenting activity might cause a state of weariness, potentially leading to heat cramps.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. 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 'real feel', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
