Weather in August
Temperature
The transition from July to August sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still hot 89.1°F (31.7°C), from a not significantly different 90.1°F (32.3°C). August sees the temperature falling to a mean low of 68.7°F (20.4°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is computed to be a scorching 105.8°F (41°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure to the Sun during this period. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
