Weather in August
Temperature
August's climate shows a minor adjustment in average high-temperatures to a still moderately hot 83.1°F (28.4°C) from July's 84.7°F (29.3°C). Mina reports a considerable drop from daytime temperatures in August, recording an average nighttime figure of 61°F (16.1°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). With constant exposure and activity, a state of weariness might ensue, leading to potential heat cramps.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
