August, the last month of the summer in Green Sea, is another tropical month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 87.6°F (30.9°C) and an average low of 71.6°F (22°C).

Temperature

Transitioning into August, Green Sea experiences an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.6°F (30.9°C), marking a minor shift from the preceding month. During the month of August, Green Sea experiences a steady low-temperature average of 71.6°F (22°C).

Heat index

August's average heat index is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Incorporate special precautions, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is substantial. Sustained activity could cause heatstroke.
Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. 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 highly critical to babies and toddlers. 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.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.

Note: The maximum daily UV index, 6 in August, converts into the following recommendations:
Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays.
