Weather in August
Temperature
The shift from July to August is characterized by an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.9°F (31.6°C), not significantly different from the 91.9°F (33.3°C) of July. In August, a remarkable difference from daytime highs is noted, as Simpson records an average temperature of 67.1°F (19.5°C) during the night.Heat index
August's heat index is appraised at a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
