Weather in August
Temperature
Marcarco starts August with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 92.1°F (33.4°C), a minor shift from July's 92.7°F (33.7°C). Marcarco records an average nighttime low of 73°F (22.8°C) in August.Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a blazing hot 114.8°F (46°C). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
