Weather in August
Temperature
Várzea reaches its highest average temperatures in August, measuring 27.6°C (81.7°F) at the peak and 14.4°C (57.9°F) at the lowest.Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be 29°C (84.2°F). Constant activity during exposure could result in a state of weariness and possibly heat cramps.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
