Weather in August
Temperature
The warmest temperatures occur during August, when averages reach a peak of 28.5°C (83.3°F) and a low of 25°C (77°F).Heat index
August's mean heat index is computed to be a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). A sense of exhaustion might occur with extended exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
