Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August is marked by an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.5°F (32.5°C), bearing a close resemblance to July. In August, the average low-temperature records at an agreeable 70.3°F (21.3°C) during the nights.Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a scorching 105.8°F (41°C). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.

Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
