Weather in August
Temperature
August welcomes an average high-temperature of a still warm 82.2°F (27.9°C), not much different from the preceding month. Nighttime temperature dips to a mean of 61.2°F (16.2°C) during August.Heat index
During August, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If one continues to be active during enduring exposure, it could result in fatigue and heat cramps.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
