Weather in August
Temperature
Dundee's weather in August, with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.5°F (31.4°C), subtly shifts from July's 89.2°F (31.8°C). The nights of August anticipate an average low-temperature of 71.1°F (21.7°C).Heat index
The heat index for August is estimated at a blisteringly hot 105.8°F (41°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant 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.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.

Ward off overexposure. Defence against solar harm is crucial. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Prioritize a wide-brim hat for comprehensive sun defense for your face, neck, eyes, and ears.
