Weather in August
Temperature
The arrival of August records an average high-temperature of a still hot 88.2°F (31.2°C), closely related to the 88.3°F (31.3°C) observed in July. During the month of August, the nighttime temperature falls to an average of 68.5°F (20.3°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 104°F (40°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
