Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature in August, at a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), reveals a modest deviation from July's 88.5°F (31.4°C). During the month of August, the nighttime temperature falls to an average of 65.5°F (18.6°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is appraised at a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Incorporate special precautions, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is substantial. Sustained activity could cause heatstroke.Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.

Your best bet for sun defense on the face, eyes, and neck is a hat with a wide brim.
