Weather in August
Temperature
August, with average temperatures reaching a high of 27.5°C (81.5°F) and a low of 23.1°C (73.6°F), is the coldest month.Heat index
August's heat index is appraised at a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). Long-lasting exposure and activity potentially induce a sense of weariness, with the risk of heat cramps.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
