Weather in August
Temperature
August's onset records a minor alteration in the average high-temperature to a still tropical 92.3°F (33.5°C) from July's 92.8°F (33.8°C). August is noted for a mean low-temperature of 72.3°F (22.4°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is computed to be a burning hot 114.8°F (46°C). Heed: Expect heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continued action may cause heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.

June through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: A daily maximum UV index of 7 in August translates into the following instructions:
Implement precautions and maintain sun safety methods. Avoidance of sunburn is demanded. Stay out of direct sunlight and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest, but remember that shade devices may not offer full sun protection. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
