Weather in August

August, the last month of the summer in Dryden, is another hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 87.6°F (30.9°C) and 69.4°F (20.8°C).

Temperature

Transitioning from July to August, Dryden observes an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.6°F (30.9°C), differing subtly from the previous month. Dryden observes an average low-temperature of 69.4°F (20.8°C) during August nights.

Heat index

August's mean heat index is appraised at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
