Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August brings with it an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.7°F (32.6°C), showing a negligible variation from the month before. During August in Anchor Landing, the average low-temperature is recorded at an agreeable 73°F (22.8°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is estimated at a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Remain alert: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Extended effort can lead to heatstroke.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance 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.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
