In August, Ida's weather conditions record an average high-temperature of a hot 94.6°F (34.8°C), demonstrating little divergence from the preceding month. Throughout the month of August, the average temperature dips to a pleasant 73°F (22.8°C) at night.

Heat index

The heat index value for August is estimated at a life-threatening hot 118.4°F (48°C). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are quite likely. Heatstroke becomes a risk with continued exertion.
In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. 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 quite important for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
