Weather in August
The ideal sea water temperature of 25.7°C (78.3°F) and only 3.7 rainfall days, with 9mm (0.35") of accumulated rainfall, makes August the best time for swimming and other water activities.
Temperature
August is the warmest month of the year, registering average temperatures as high as 28.5°C (83.3°F) and as low as 24.4°C (75.9°F).Heat index
For August, the heat index is computed to be a hot 31°C (87.8°F). Persisting in activity during exposure could lead to weariness and subsequently to heat cramps.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant 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.
