Weather in August
Temperature
August's average high-temperature is a still moderately hot 82°F (27.8°C), maintaining a close comparison with July's 84.2°F (29°C). Throughout the nights in August, an average low-temperature of 63.7°F (17.6°C) is noted.Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Persistently participating in activities during exposure may lead to fatigue and induce heat cramps.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
