The UV index prudently matches its previous number, further indicating steady climatic conditions. August also witnesses a decline in cloud cover, leading to brighter, clearer skies. Moving into the tail-end of the warm season, the month's end holds promise for a transition in September's weather.

Temperature

The onset of August marks an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.6°F (30.9°C), hardly differing from July's 88.9°F (31.6°C). Eminence's average nighttime temperatures present a clear contrast to its daytime highs, measured at an enjoyable 65.8°F (18.8°C) in August.

Heat index

For August, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance 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.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
