August, the last month of the summer in Brighton, is another tropical month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 71.6°F (22°C) and an average high of 90.3°F (32.4°C).

Temperature

The transition from July to August sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still hot 90.3°F (32.4°C), from a not significantly different 91°F (32.8°C). During August, Brighton's temperature averages to a pleasant 71.6°F (22°C) at night.

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is appraised at a blisteringly hot 107.6°F (42°C). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
