Weather in August
Temperature
In August, the average high-temperature registers at a still tropical 91.9°F (33.3°C), nearly identical to July's 94.3°F (34.6°C). Ruella's temperature lowers to a mean of 71.6°F (22°C) during the nights in August.Heat index
In August, the heat index is estimated at a blistering 104°F (40°C). Implement enhanced safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Sustained activity might result in heatstroke.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
