Weather in August
Temperature
With the advent of August, Ursa's high-temperatures adjust to a still tropical 88.9°F (31.6°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. Ursa experiences an average low-temperature reading of 77.2°F (25.1°C) throughout August.Heat index
During August, the heat index is estimated at a scorching 107.6°F (42°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.

Take precautions against overexposure. Fair-skinned people may get burned in less than 20 minutes. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. For effective sun eye protection, rely on sunglasses certified for UVA and UVB resistance.
