Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Caldwell, is also a hot month, with an average temperature varying between 88.3°F (31.3°C) and 69.4°F (20.8°C).

Temperature

With the transition into August, Caldwell notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.3°F (31.3°C), closely resembling July. During August, the nighttime temperature averages to an agreeable 69.4°F (20.8°C).

Heat index

The heat index in August is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Ensure extra safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.
Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.
