Weather in August
Temperature
In August, Gibson's weather conditions record an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.3°F (30.7°C), demonstrating little divergence from the preceding month. Gibson's nighttime temperature in August drops to an average of 68.9°F (20.5°C).Heat index
August's mean heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
