Weather in August
Temperature
Norah experiences a transition to a still hot 89.1°F (31.7°C) in average high-temperatures with the arrival of August, not greatly differing from July's 89.2°F (31.8°C). The average temperature during August nights is registered at a moderately hot 77°F (25°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is estimated at an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Your best bet for sun defense on the face, eyes, and neck is a hat with a wide brim.
