Weather in August
Temperature
The advent of August signifies a minor shift to an average high-temperature of a still tropical 89.1°F (31.7°C), aligning closely with July. During August, Parkdale records a consistent average nighttime temperature of 69.6°F (20.9°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 105.8°F (41°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.
