Weather in August
Temperature
The commencement of August records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 92.5°F (33.6°C), barely varying from July's 92.8°F (33.8°C). An average low-temperature of 73°F (22.8°C) is noted during the month of August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Be cautious: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a possible consequence of continuous physical effort.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

The months with the highest UV index are June through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: The maximum UV index of 7 during August translates into these guidelines:
Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage.
