Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August reveals an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C), closely mirroring July's climate. Despite a significant daily temperature range, Waldo's temperature falls to a steady low-temperature average of 67.6°F (19.8°C) in August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 98.6°F (37°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Resist overexposure. Safeguarding from solar damage is indispensable. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. On days when the sun blazes, arm yourself with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB radiation.
