Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August shows a subtle variation to a tropical 31.3°C (88.3°F) from July's 28.9°C (84°F) in the average high-temperature. Cafululo's August nights cool down significantly from the day's heat, to an average low-temperature of 14.8°C (58.6°F).Heat index
The heat index for August is estimated at a hot 32°C (89.6°F). Persisting in activity during long-term exposure might induce weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.

Shun overexposure. Protection from sun ravages is indispensable. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection.
