Weather in August
Temperature
The introduction of August notes a subtle temperature variation to a still moderately hot 83.1°F (28.4°C) from July's 84.4°F (29.1°C). An average minimum temperature of 64.2°F (17.9°C) marks the month of August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is evaluated at a hot 91.4°F (33°C). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.

Evade overexposure. Individuals with fair skin risk burning in under 20 minutes. 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.
