Weather in August
Temperature
As July transitions into August, the average high-temperature rests at a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. In Kalona, the average temperature during the nights of August drops to a pleasant 71.2°F (21.8°C).Heat index
August's average heat index is estimated at an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Persist with safeguards and heed sun safety doctrines. Keeping sunburn at bay is of prime importance. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
