Weather in August
Temperature
Leon experiences a transition to a still warm 81.9°F (27.7°C) in average high-temperatures with the arrival of August, not greatly differing from July's 83.5°F (28.6°C). Leon records a steady low-temperature average of 63.5°F (17.5°C) during August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Unrelenting activity during exposure could cause fatigue and potentially lead to heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.

A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: The UV index of 6 during August leads to these advisories:
Enforce precautions and stick to sun safety measures. Preservation from skin and eye damage is essential. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. A wide-brim hat offers excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck. Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection significantly reduce eye damage from sun exposure.
