Weather in August
Temperature
As August takes its course, Torch's average high-temperature registers at a still tropical 87.8°F (31°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. Torch encounters a steady low-temperature average of 68.2°F (20.1°C) throughout the month of August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is computed to be a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.

Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary. Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
