Weather in August
Temperature
August's presence marks an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.3°F (31.3°C), subtly varied from July's 90.7°F (32.6°C). Throughout the nights in August, an average low-temperature of 68.2°F (20.1°C) is noted.Heat index
The average heat index in August is evaluated at a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). Take additional safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Prolonged activity may cause heatstroke.From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
