Weather in August
Temperature
The transition from July to August sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still tropical 88.2°F (31.2°C), from a not significantly different 90.3°F (32.4°C). Eden documents a substantial deviation from daytime highs with a consistent low-temperature of 66°F (18.9°C) during August nights.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 100.4°F (38°C). Use additional protective measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible outcomes. Continuous activity might lead to heatstroke.When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. Be aware that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. and try to reduce direct sun exposure during this period as much as possible. For a sun-safe wardrobe, go for clothes that are tightly woven and generously sized.
