Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August observes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 82°F (27.8°C), nearly identical to July's 84°F (28.9°C). Throughout August, New Providence experiences a low-temperature average of 65.5°F (18.6°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is estimated at a hot 87.8°F (31°C). If one continues to be active during exposure, it might cause tiredness and subsequent heat cramps.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
