Weather in August
Temperature
With an average high-temperature of 86.7°F (30.4°C) and an average low-temperature of 81.5°F (27.5°C), August is the warmest month.Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 98.6°F (37°C). Adopt additional preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential outcomes. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. 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 'feels like' or 'real feel', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

Take precautions against overexposure. Protection against sun damage is needed. Stay out of direct sunlight between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide complete protection. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage. Attention! UV radiation is markedly stronger with water and sand reflections.
