Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August is marked with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 89.2°F (31.8°C), showing an insignificant shift from July's 91°F (32.8°C). Moore reports a consistent average low-temperature of 68.4°F (20.2°C) throughout August nights.Heat index
The heat index in August is computed to be a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.

Endorse precautions and be consistent with sun safety guidelines. Preventing sunburn is paramount. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. For minimizing sun-related eye damage, always choose sunglasses with UVA and UVB coverage.
