Weather in August

August's mean heat index is evaluated at a tropical 34°C (93.2°F). Implement additional preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Heatstroke could follow prolonged activity.Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
