Weather in August
Temperature
In Lewis, August's average high-temperature stands at a still tropical 90.3°F (32.4°C), closely related to the preceding month. Despite the high peak temperatures, Lewis witnesses an average nighttime cooling to an enjoyable 67.8°F (19.9°C) in August.Heat index
The heat index value during August is estimated at a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
