Weather in August
Temperature
During August, Lima observes a subtle ascent to a still warm 83.1°F (28.4°C) from July's 85.6°F (29.8°C) in the average high-temperature. Throughout the nights in August, an average low-temperature of 66.9°F (19.4°C) is noted.Heat index
The heat index value during August is evaluated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). With constant exposure and activity, a state of weariness might ensue, leading to potential heat cramps.Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. 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.
