Weather in August
Temperature
As August takes its course, Santa Rosa del Sur's average high-temperature registers at a still hot 32.5°C (90.5°F), closely aligning with the preceding month. An average low-temperature of 21.2°C (70.2°F) is observed during the August nights.Heat index
During August, the heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 41°C (105.8°F). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
