August weather forecast
Buaya, Philippines

The last month of the summer, August, is a tropical month in Buaya, Philippines, with an average temperature fluctuating between 30°C (86°F) and 25.8°C (78.4°F).

Temperature

August brings a marginal elevation to a tropical 30°C (86°F) from July's 29.4°C (84.9°F) in Buaya's average high-temperatures. During August, Buaya's nighttime temperatures demonstrate a subtle cooling from daytime highs, stabilizing at a warm 25.8°C (78.4°F).

Heat index

Throughout August, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.
Note: A typical high UV index of 7 in August suggests the following recommendations:
Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. For effective sun eye protection, rely on sunglasses certified for UVA and UVB resistance.
