August stands out as Sawgrass's warmest month, with an average high-temperature of 89.6°F (32°C) and a low-temperature of 77.7°F (25.4°C).Heat index
In August, the heat index is evaluated at a blistering 109.4°F (43°C). Note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke can follow with prolonged activity.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection.
