Weather in August
Temperature
Borroloola's August showcases an average high-temperature of a tropical 30.9°C (87.6°F), hardly distinct from July's 29°C (84.2°F). In August, a remarkable difference from daytime highs is noted, as Borroloola records an average temperature of 15.8°C (60.4°F) during the night.Heat index
The heat index value for August is appraised at a hot 32°C (89.6°F). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
