Weather in August
Temperature
Caripe observes a minor difference in average high-temperatures between July's 30.8°C (87.4°F) and August's 31.3°C (88.3°F). During August, the temperature tends to dip to an average of 22.2°C (72°F) at night.Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 43°C (109.4°F). Be prepared: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Continued activity may lead to heatstroke.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

The months with the highest UV index are February through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: In August, a daily maximum UV index of 7 leads to the following instructions:
Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. Protect your eyes, ears, face, and neck from the Sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
