August, the last month of the summer in Perkins, is another hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 89.6°F (32°C) and an average low of 72.9°F (22.7°C).

Temperature

Perkins experiences a recorded average high-temperature of a still tropical 89.6°F (32°C) in August, closely aligned with July's 90.9°F (32.7°C). In August, the average low-temperature records at a pleasant 72.9°F (22.7°C) during the nights.

Heat index

The heat index in August is appraised at a blisteringly hot 109.4°F (43°C). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
