August, the last month of the summer in Abbot Springs, is also a hot month, with an average temperature varying between 69.8°F (21°C) and 89.2°F (31.8°C).

The arrival of August denotes a barely perceptible change in the average high-temperatures to a still hot 89.2°F (31.8°C) from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C). Abbot Springs records an average low of 69.8°F (21°C) throughout the nights in August.

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is appraised at an extremely hot 107.6°F (42°C). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
