Macuspana, Mexico

August, the last month of the summer in Macuspana, is another hot month, with an average temperature varying between 21.4°C (70.5°F) and 32.1°C (89.8°F).

Temperature

The beginning of August records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32.1°C (89.8°F), marking a negligible difference from July's 32.3°C (90.1°F). Throughout August, the average low-temperature dips to a pleasant 21.4°C (70.5°F).

Heat index

During August, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 45°C (113°F). Stay vigilant: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke may follow prolonged exertion.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Exercise precautions and adapt sun safety practices. Defence against skin and eye affliction is paramount. To the best of your ability, limit your exposure to the sun between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Your best bet for sun defense on the face, eyes, and neck is a hat with a wide brim.
