Weather in August
Temperature
The transition into August is marked with an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.4°F (30.8°C), showing an insignificant shift from July's 88.2°F (31.2°C). An average low-temperature of 67.6°F (19.8°C) is common during the nights of August.Heat index
In August, the heat index is calculated to be a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Implement precautions and maintain sun safety methods. Avoidance of sunburn is demanded. The hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. have the most intense UV radiation. As much as possible, limit direct sun exposure during this period. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
