Weather in August
Temperature
Major registers an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.4°F (30.2°C) with the arrival of August, showing minor deviation from the preceding month. Throughout August, Major witnesses a nighttime temperature average of 66.9°F (19.4°C).Heat index
The heat index for August is evaluated at a fiery hot 98.6°F (37°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
