Weather in August
Temperature
With the onset of August, Punta de Mata's average high-temperature clocks in at a still hot 31.3°C (88.3°F), showing a minor fluctuation from the previous month. Punta de Mata's temperature in August lowers to a consistent average of 22.2°C (72°F) during the nights.Heat index
August's heat index is calculated to be a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
