Weather in August
Temperature
August notes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.9°F (27.7°C), subtly differing from July's 84.2°F (29°C). Throughout August, the nighttime temperature averages to a comfortable 64.9°F (18.3°C).Heat index
The heat index value during August is appraised at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If exposure and ongoing activity persist, they might induce a state of tiredness and heat cramps.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant 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.
