Weather in August
Temperature
The transition from July to August sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still hot 93.2°F (34°C), from a not significantly different 93.7°F (34.3°C). In Calion, the expected average low-temperature for August is a pleasant 72°F (22.2°C).Heat index
The heat index in August is estimated at a burning hot 116.6°F (47°C). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. 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.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
