Weather in August
Temperature
Jacktown's weather in August, with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), subtly shifts from July's 87.1°F (30.6°C). Despite a significant disparity with daytime temperatures, an average low-temperature of 64.8°F (18.2°C) is recorded during August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is appraised at a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays play a pivotal role in reducing solar eye damage.
