Weather in August
Temperature
The warmest month is August, with an average high-temperature of 90.3°F (32.4°C) and an average low-temperature of 77.4°F (25.2°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is computed to be a blisteringly hot 109.4°F (43°C). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. 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 extremely significant for children. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.
