Weather in August
Temperature
August observes an average high-temperature of a still warm 27.8°C (82°F), marking an insignificant difference from July's 26.8°C (80.2°F). Santa Maria encounters a steady low-temperature average of 18.3°C (64.9°F) throughout the month of August.Heat index
The heat index in August is estimated at a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). If activity and exposure persist, they could induce fatigue, leading to possible heat cramps.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
