August weather forecast
Nueva, Philippines

August, the last month of the summer in Nueva, is another tropical month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 25.2°C (77.4°F) and an average high of 30.1°C (86.2°F).

Temperature

The beginning of August reveals an average high-temperature of a still hot 30.1°C (86.2°F), showing minimal deviation from the previous month. August introduces a small decrease to a nighttime average of 25.2°C (77.4°F).

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is appraised at a torrid 39°C (102.2°F). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. 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 especially vital to children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Employ safeguards and advocate sun safety protocols. Shielding against skin and eye damage is crucial. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
