Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August denotes a barely perceptible change in the average high-temperatures to a tropical 31.3°C (88.3°F) from July's 28.9°C (84°F). São Lucas documents a significant temperature variance in August, with the mean nighttime lows settling at a refreshing 14.8°C (58.6°F).Heat index
The heat index value during August is computed to be a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
