Weather in August
Temperature
During August, Lucy observes a subtle ascent to a still tropical 89.6°F (32°C) from July's 90°F (32.2°C) in the average high-temperature. Lucy experiences a mean low-temperature of 75.7°F (24.3°C) during August.Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a scorching 111.2°F (44°C). Stay on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Ongoing effort can cause heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. 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 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.

Sunshine

June through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: An average maximum UV index of 7 in August leads to these recommendations:
Take precautions and utilize sun safety practices. Protection against skin and eye damage is required. Stay out of direct sunlight between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide complete protection. To mitigate harm from sun exposure, pick sunglasses offering UVA and UVB defense.
