Weather in August
Temperature
July's transformation into August witnesses an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.4°F (30.8°C), noting a minor change from the preceding month. Contrary to the day's heat, an average low-temperature of 65.8°F (18.8°C) is recorded during the nights in August.Heat index
August's mean heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 100.4°F (38°C). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
