Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.3°F (32.4°C), revealing a mild distinction from the 91.2°F (32.9°C) in July. August's nights observe an average temperature of 75.7°F (24.3°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
