Weather in August
Temperature
The average high-temperature for August is a still tropical 90.5°F (32.5°C), closely aligning with the temperature of the preceding month. A significant drop from the day's peak to an average low-temperature of 68.9°F (20.5°C) is noted during the nights in August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a scorching 109.4°F (43°C). Eyes open: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Prolonged exertion could lead to heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Select sunglasses that boast both UVA and UVB protection to limit the adverse effects of the sun on the eyes.
