Weather in August
Temperature
With the advent of August, Forbes's high-temperatures adjust to a still tropical 94.5°F (34.7°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. August nights observe an average temperature dip to a warm 73.8°F (23.2°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 125.6°F (52°C). Be on the lookout: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Continued exertion can result in heatstroke.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
