Weather in August
Temperature
As Saint Stephens welcomes August, the average high-temperature is noted at a still hot 92.1°F (33.4°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. Saint Stephens's temperature lowers to a mean of 72.3°F (22.4°C) during the nights in August.Heat index
For August, the heat index is computed to be a burning hot 116.6°F (47°C). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. 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 extremely significant for children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
