Weather in August
Temperature
August's weather displays an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.2°F (30.1°C), slightly varied from July's 88.5°F (31.4°C). Despite a significant daily temperature range, Merino's temperature falls to a steady low-temperature average of 63.3°F (17.4°C) in August.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a hot 87.8°F (31°C). If exposure and activity are sustained, they might cause a feeling of weariness, resulting in heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
