Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August marks the average high-temperature at a still warm 81.9°F (27.7°C), differing minimally from July's 84.4°F (29.1°C). Nighttime temperature dips to a mean of 61.5°F (16.4°C) during August.Heat index
In August, the average heat index is computed to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If exposure and ongoing activity persist, they might induce a state of tiredness and heat cramps.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. 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 especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
