Weather in August
Temperature
The commencement of August notes an average high-temperature of a still hot 89.2°F (31.8°C), exhibiting little difference from the previous month. August brings with it a nighttime average temperature of 69.8°F (21°C).Heat index
August's heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 105.8°F (41°C). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
