Weather in August
Temperature
In August, Marvel experiences a minor shift in meteorological conditions with average high-temperatures marked at a still moderately hot 81.5°F (27.5°C), closely mirroring the climate in July. A marked difference from the daytime temperatures, Marvel's nighttime temperature falls to an average low of 58.5°F (14.7°C) in August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Long-lasting exposure and activity potentially induce a sense of weariness, with the risk of heat cramps.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.

Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
