Weather in August
Temperature
With the onset of August, the average high-temperature stands at a still moderately hot 83.3°F (28.5°C), closely aligned with July's 84.7°F (29.3°C). An average minimum temperature of 70.5°F (21.4°C) marks the month of August.Heat index
During August, the heat index is appraised at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). With constant exposure and activity, a state of weariness might ensue, leading to potential heat cramps.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. 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.
