Weather in August
Temperature
August's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.3°F (32.4°C), demonstrating subtle variation from the preceding month. Nightly temperatures drop to an average low of 70.9°F (21.6°C) in August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a blistering 109.4°F (43°C). Be prepared: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Continued activity may lead to heatstroke.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. 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 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
