Weather in August
Temperature
As August unfolds, the average high-temperature reaches a still tropical 87.1°F (30.6°C), hinting at a slight fluctuation from the previous month. Glenn Echo's average low-temperature is measured at a comfortable 65.8°F (18.8°C) during August.Heat index
The average heat index in August is evaluated at a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
