Weather in August
Temperature
August, on average, is the warmest month, registering a high temperature of 95.5°F (35.3°C) and a low of 73.9°F (23.3°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 118.4°F (48°C). Take note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke can occur with prolonged effort.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. 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. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.

Act on precautions and pay attention to sun safety recommendations. Avoidance of sunburn is obligatory. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage.
