Weather in August
Temperature
Faisons indicates an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C) in August, showing minor variation from July's 88°F (31.1°C). In Faisons, the average temperature during the nights of August drops to an agreeable 68.9°F (20.5°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is appraised at a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. 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 'feels like' or 'real feel', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
