Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August denotes a barely perceptible change in the average high-temperatures to a still tropical 91.4°F (33°C) from July's 91.8°F (33.2°C). Carrollton records a mean low-temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C) in August.Heat index
The heat index for August is evaluated at a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.

Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. Remember that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. On days when the sun blazes, arm yourself with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB radiation.
