Weather in August
Temperature
In August, Steiner notes an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.9°F (32.7°C), hardly different from the preceding month. The average temperature during August nights is registered at a pleasant 72.1°F (22.3°C).Heat index
During August, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical 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.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
Humidity
The average relative humidity in August is 73%.Rainfall
The wettest months are August and December, with an average 2.36" (60mm) of rainfall.Snowfall

Sunshine
The average sunshine in August is 10.2h.UV index
In August, the average daily maximum UV index is 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: During August, 6 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Deflect overexposure. Sun protection is a necessity. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. Protect your eyes, ears, face, and neck from the Sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
