Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Carey, is another tropical month, with an average temperature varying between 91.9°F (33.3°C) and 73.9°F (23.3°C).

Temperature

July and August bring Carey's highest average temperatures, reaching a high of 91.9°F (33.3°C).

Heat index

August's mean heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 118.4°F (48°C). Stay alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a likely outcome of ongoing activity.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. 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.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.
