The heat index for August is calculated to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C).

The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
