Weather in August
Temperature
Stepping into August, Rio Rico records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.1°F (30.6°C), almost consistent with July. The nighttime temperature in Rio Rico dips to an agreeable 68.4°F (20.2°C) on average during August.Heat index
For most parts of August, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Uninterrupted activity during exposure could lead to a sense of exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
