Weather in August
Temperature
July's transformation into August witnesses an average high-temperature of a still warm 82°F (27.8°C), noting a minor change from the preceding month. The average temperature drops to a comfortable 63.5°F (17.5°C) during the night in the month of August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Uninterrupted activity during exposure could lead to a sense of exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
