Weather in August
Temperature
As August takes hold, the average high-temperature is a still moderately hot 83.1°F (28.4°C), nearly mirroring that of the previous month. During the nights in August, an average low-temperature of 62.2°F (16.8°C) is observed in Saint James.Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Continued exposure and engagement in activity might trigger tiredness and subsequently heat cramps.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
