Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Neapolis, is another tropical month, with an average temperature ranging between max 86.5°F (30.3°C) and min 67.6°F (19.8°C).

Temperature

The beginning of August records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), almost echoing the conditions of the previous month. Neapolis encounters an average low-temperature of 67.6°F (19.8°C) during August nights.

Heat index

During August, the heat index is calculated to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
