Weather in August
Temperature
August's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a still hot 88.3°F (31.3°C), slightly deviating from July's 89.4°F (31.9°C). Throughout August, the nighttime temperature averages to an agreeable 69.4°F (20.8°C).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be an extremely hot 104°F (40°C). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
