Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Meeks, is also a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 90°F (32.2°C) and 72.1°F (22.3°C).

Temperature

In August, Meeks's weather conditions record an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90°F (32.2°C), demonstrating little divergence from the preceding month. An average low-temperature of 72.1°F (22.3°C) is observed in Meeks during the August nights.

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.
Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

As much as possible, limit direct sun exposure during this period.
