Weather in August
Temperature
Pumpkin Center's shift into August is marked by a subtle change to a still hot 86.5°F (30.3°C) from July's 87.4°F (30.8°C) in temperature. Pumpkin Center's nights in August experience an average temperature drop to a refreshing 66.7°F (19.3°C).Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
