AT THEIR BEST IN AUGUST

 

THE REST OF THE WORLD

 

 

August is the last full month of summer for much of the northern hemisphere.  For the northern part of that hemisphere, the weather is reaching a peak.  For much of the southern hemisphere, it is mid-winter.  However, the wet-and-dry tropics of the southern hemisphere will be having their sunny and dry season.  This is their best time of year. 

 

          The beach areas of the northern hemisphere featured in this month will generally have their warmest waters of the year.  Just the opposite will be true in the southern tropics and sub-tropics, but there the temperature change is slight. As a rule of thumb, you can usually assume that if a place is at its best in a particular month, then the months on either side of the featured month will have pretty good weather too.
