Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August coincides with an average high-temperature of a still warm 84.7°F (29.3°C), indicating a minimal shift from July's 85.8°F (29.9°C). In the month of August, the temperature generally rests at an average low of 65.8°F (18.8°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 95°F (35°C). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.

A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: The daily high UV index of 6 during August translates into the following recommendations:
Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun's UV radiation is at its peak. Limit your exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. A wide-brim hat offers excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck. Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection significantly reduce eye damage from sun exposure.
