Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Lula, is another hot month, with an average temperature ranging between min 71.2°F (21.8°C) and max 88.7°F (31.5°C).

Temperature

The transition from July to August sees an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.7°F (31.5°C), indicating a minor variance from the prior month. During the month of August, Lula anticipates a mean low-temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C).

Heat index

The heat index in August is estimated at a blisteringly hot 105.8°F (41°C). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
