Weather in August
Temperature
The transition from July to August brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 94.5°F (34.7°C), barely different from July's 94.6°F (34.8°C). During August, the temperature is averaged to a low of 73.8°F (23.2°C) at night.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a blazing hot 125.6°F (52°C). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Prolonged effort can result in heatstroke.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. Equip yourself with UVA and UVB-filtering sunglasses on clear, sunny days.
