Weather in August
Temperature
August begins with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.7°F (32.6°C), reflecting close similarity to the preceding month. August generally records an average low-temperature of 72.1°F (22.3°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Forewarned: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Ongoing physical activity increases the likelihood of heatstroke.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
