Weather in August
Temperature
August's weather displays an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88°F (31.1°C), slightly varied from July's 88.9°F (31.6°C). Throughout August, the average low-temperature records at a pleasant 69.1°F (20.6°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is calculated to be a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
