Weather in August
Temperature
August brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C), showing a slight difference from July's 88.3°F (31.3°C). In August, Princeton's temperature tends to fall to an average low of 68°F (20°C) during the night.Heat index
In August, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids frequently ignore the importance of taking a break and rehydrating. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during long-lasting physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
