Weather in August
Temperature
In August, the average high-temperature registers at a still tropical 86.9°F (30.5°C), nearly identical to July's 88.2°F (31.2°C). During the month of August, the temperature falls to an average of 66°F (18.9°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
