Weather in August

The heat index value during August is appraised at a tropical 93.2°F (34°C). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
