Weather in August
Temperature
The warmest months are July and August, with an average high-temperature of 91°F (32.8°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is evaluated at a blazing hot 113°F (45°C). Be on the lookout: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Continued exertion can result in heatstroke.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. 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. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular 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.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
