Weather in August
Temperature
Curtis's shift into August is marked by a subtle change to a still hot 93.2°F (34°C) from July's 93.7°F (34.3°C) in temperature. A sharp contrast between day and night is prevalent in August with an average nighttime temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C).Heat index
The average heat index in August is calculated to be a burning hot 116.6°F (47°C). Keep on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a possible danger with ongoing physical activity.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

Sunshine

In Curtis, the average daily maximum UV index in August is 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: In August, a regular UV index of 6 translates into these guidelines:
Resist overexposure. Safeguarding from solar damage is indispensable. Limit your direct sun exposure, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest. Shade structures might not provide complete sun protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
