August brings a marginal elevation to a still hot 89.1°F (31.7°C) from July's 90.1°F (32.3°C) in Hopper's average high-temperatures. Throughout August, Hopper witnesses a nighttime temperature average of 68.7°F (20.4°C).

Heat index

Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. 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.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
