Temperature

Cayo Costa witnesses the warmest weather in August, with temperatures averaging a high of 88°F (31.1°C) and a low of 81°F (27.2°C).

Heat index

In August, the average heat index is computed to be a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Note: The UV index of 7 during August leads to these advisories:
Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. Counter UV radiation's ill effects with clothing designed for sun safety and UV-resistant eyewear.
