Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C), closely related to the 91.4°F (33°C) observed in July. An average low-temperature of 71.4°F (21.9°C) is noted during the nights in August.Heat index
The heat index in August is estimated at a scorching 109.4°F (43°C). Keep alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke is a potential danger with continued physical activity.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
