Weather in August
Temperature
August's onset records a minor alteration in the average high-temperature to a still tropical 87.1°F (30.6°C) from July's 89.2°F (31.8°C). Nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 66.9°F (19.4°C) in August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is appraised at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). If exposure and ongoing activity persist, they might induce a state of tiredness and heat cramps.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
