Weather in August
Temperature
Transitioning from July to August, Dunlap observes an average high-temperature of a still hot 93.2°F (34°C), differing subtly from the previous month. The temperature notes a substantial fall from the daily peak to an average of 71.2°F (21.8°C) during August nights.Heat index
For August, the heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 116.6°F (47°C). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
