Weather in August
Temperature
Ward's August showcases an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C), hardly distinct from July's 91.4°F (33°C). An average low-temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C) is anticipated throughout the nights during August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is evaluated at a scorching 107.6°F (42°C). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. 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.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
