Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature during August is a still tropical 90.9°F (32.7°C), almost matching the conditions of the preceding month. During August, Ensign reports a marked contrast from daily peak temperatures, with an average nighttime reading of 68°F (20°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is calculated to be a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.Heat index specifics point out values are for conditions of shade and a slight breeze. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Persist in precautions and follow sun safety policies. Keeping sunburn at bay is imperative. Avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Keep in mind that shade structures may not provide complete protection. On sunny days, it's ideal to wear sunglasses that filter out UVA and UVB rays.
