Weather in August
Temperature
Fosters's weather in August, with an average high-temperature of a still hot 91.6°F (33.1°C), subtly shifts from July's 91.9°F (33.3°C). In Fosters, August nights cool down to an average of 71.6°F (22°C).Heat index
The heat index for August is estimated at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Beware: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are on the cards. Heatstroke could result from sustained physical activity.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. 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.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

Stand by precautions and apply sun safety measures. Evading sunburn is of great importance. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
