Temperature
In the transition from
July to August, Catenanuova reports an average high-temperature of a tropical 34.3°C (93.7°F), indicating a close resemblance to the prior month. In Catenanuova, August nights witness a remarkable decline from the day's zenith to an agreeable 21.2°C (70.2°F).
Heat index
In August, the average heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 49°C (120.2°F).
Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. 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. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

In Catenanuova, the average relative humidity in August is 73%.
