Weather in August
Temperature
Newsoms notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C) in August, hardly diverging from July. Throughout August, Newsoms registers a consistent average low-temperature of 68.9°F (20.5°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 100.4°F (38°C). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. 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 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
